We are a very friendly and laid-back group whose members are always ready to welcome new friends. Our ethos is very much one of mutual respect, friendship, and support. Our members enjoy learning about new topics from our guest speakers or just getting together for a chat over tea and cake. New members and visitors are always welcome.

Meetings are held on the third Thursday of the month at 1pm (winter) or 7:15pm (summer, April to September inclusive) in the Village Hall in Butley, except where otherwise indicated.
